mybatis

A Simple Spring 4 and MyBatis Transaction Example

According to wikipedia, database transaction should provide an “all-or-nothing” proposition, stating that each work-unit performed in a database must either complete in its entirety or have no effect whatsoever. Further, the system must isolate each transaction from other transactions, results must conform to existing constraints in the database, and transactions that complete successfully must get written to durable storage.

So on this example, im trying to create a simple MyBatis database transaction, managed by Spring Framework. Okay, so this is my pom file, as you can see, im using Spring version 4.1.2.

This is my database structure,

CREATE TABLE `testing` (
  `Id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(30) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `address` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  PRIMARY KEY (`Id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `ix` (`name`)
) 

Im mapping my “testing” table into an xml and java file,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE mapper PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Mapper 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-mapper.dtd" >
<mapper namespace="com.edw.springmybatis.mapper.TestingMapper" >
  
    <select id="insert" parameterType="com.edw.springmybatis.bean.Testing" >
        insert into testing (name, address)
        values ( #{name,jdbcType=VARCHAR}, #{address,jdbcType=VARCHAR} )
    </select> 
  
</mapper>
package com.edw.springmybatis.bean;

import java.io.Serializable;

public class Testing implements Serializable  {

    private Integer id;
    private String name;
    private String address;

	public Integer getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
	
    // other setter and getter 

    public Testing() {
    }

    public Testing(String name, String address) {
        this.name = name;
        this.address = address;
    }
}

This is my configuration.xml file for handling all mybatis’ configuration file,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE configuration

"http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-config.dtd">

  </mappers>
</configuration>

And my spring xml files, applicationContext.xml and dispatcher-servlet.xml

And finally, my web.xml file to hold all my spring xml files,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

My log4j file,

# Global logging configuration

log4j.logger.com.edw=DEBUG

log4j.rootLogger=WARN,stdout

# Console output...
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%c{1}] %-5p %c:%L - %m%n

Okay, now is for my java class. First is MyBatis mapper file,

package com.edw.springmybatis.mapper;

import com.edw.springmybatis.bean.Testing;

public interface TestingMapper {
    public void insert(Testing testing);    
}

Next is my Service class,

package com.edw.springmybatis.service;

import com.edw.springmybatis.bean.Testing;
import com.edw.springmybatis.mapper.TestingMapper;
import java.util.Random;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Propagation;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;

@Service
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRED, rollbackFor = Exception.class)
public class TestingService {

    @Autowired
    private TestingMapper testingMapper;

    public void insert() throws Exception {
        testingMapper.insert(new Testing("" + new Random().nextInt(), "" + new Random().nextInt()));
        testingMapper.insert(new Testing()); // this will throw an exception
    }
}

And finally, my controller file

package com.edw.springmybatis.controller;

import com.edw.springmybatis.service.TestingService;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;

@Controller
public class IndexController {

    @Autowired
    private TestingService testingService;
    
    private final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());
    
    @RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public @ResponseBody Integer index() {
        try {
            testingService.insert();
			return 1;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            logger.error(e);
        }
        return 0;
    }    
}

This is what happen when im accessing my application directly,
mybatisspring1

And this what is written on my netbeans console,
mybatisspring2

As you can see, my previous insert is rolledback so there is no new record on my “testing” table.
mybatisspring3

And this is my netbeans project structure,
mybatisspring4

You can find the sourcecode needed on my Github page.

java.sql.SQLException: Numeric Overflow When Connecting to Oracle using MyBatis

Im using mybatis framework, and it was working very nice untuil today ive found a very weird error. A very weird error, because im only doing select queries and not insert anything.

This is the complete stacktrace,

Cause: java.sql.SQLException: Numeric Overflow

	at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor198.invoke(Unknown Source)
	at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43)

This is my java bean,

public class TblInvalid implements Serializable {
    private short id;

    private String attribute7;

    // other setter and getter
}

My Oracle DDL looks like this,

CREATE TABLE TBL_INVALID
    (
        ID NUMBER,
        ATTRIBUTE7 VARCHAR2(255)
 )

The workaround is actually so simple, changing from Short into BigDecimal makes the problem goes away.

public class TblInvalid implements Serializable {
    private BigDecimal id;

    private String attribute7;

    // other setter and getter
}

Using HashMaps as MyBatis’ Parameter and Return Values

Usually im using javabean as both parameter and return values for MyBatis. But actually, MyBatis also able to use HashMaps as both parameter and return values. Here is the example,

First is a simple pom file to load all the libraries needed,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

    <artifactId>MyBatisSelectMap</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <packaging>jar</packaging>
    <properties>
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
        <maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target>
    </properties>
    
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>log4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.17</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>mysql</groupId>
            <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
            <version>5.1.6</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.mybatis</groupId>
            <artifactId>mybatis</artifactId>
            <version>3.2.2</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</project>

And my configuration.xml file, to hold my MyBatis’ configuration

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE configuration
PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Config 3.0//EN"
"http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-config.dtd">
<configuration>
    <environments default="development">
        <environment id="development">
            <transactionManager type="JDBC"/>
            <dataSource type="UNPOOLED">
                <property name="driver" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
                <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost/test"/>
                <property name="username" value="root"/>
                <property name="password" value="password"/>
            </dataSource>
        </environment>
    </environments>
    <mappers>
        <mapper resource="com/edw/mybatisselectmap/sqlmap/SelectMapper.xml" />
    </mappers>
</configuration>

An xml file, to hold all my queries, i named it SelectMapper.xml.
Please note the difference between using #{} and ${}. Hashtags sign means a prepared statement variables, while dollar sign means a simple string replace.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE mapper PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Mapper 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-mapper.dtd" >
<mapper namespace="com.edw.mybatisselectmap.mapper.SelectMapper" >    
    <select resultType="java.util.Map"  parameterType="java.util.Map" id="select" >
        SELECT
                *
        FROM
                testing 
        WERE  
                name LIKE #{myname}
        ORDER BY ${orderBy} 
    </select>    
</mapper>

A simple java file to map my xml queries,

package com.edw.mybatisselectmap.mapper;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;

public interface SelectMapper {
    List<HashMap<Object, Object>> select(HashMap<Object, Object> hashMap);
}

and my java configuration file, to load all my MyBatis’ configurations

package com.edw.mybatisselectmap.config;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.Reader;
import org.apache.ibatis.io.Resources;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSessionFactory;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSessionFactoryBuilder;

public class MyBatisSqlSessionFactory {

    private static final SqlSessionFactory FACTORY;

    static {
        try {
            Reader reader = Resources.getResourceAsReader("com/edw/mybatisselectmap/sqlmap/Configuration.xml");
            FACTORY = new SqlSessionFactoryBuilder().build(reader);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException("Fatal Error. Cause: " + e, e);
        }
    }

    public static SqlSessionFactory getSqlSessionFactory() {
        return FACTORY;
    }
}

And finally my main java file,

package com.edw.mybatisselectmap;

import com.edw.mybatisselectmap.config.MyBatisSqlSessionFactory;
import com.edw.mybatisselectmap.mapper.SelectMapper;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSession;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class Main {

    private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Main.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SqlSession sqlSession = null;
        try {
            
            HashMap<Object, Object> hashMapParameter = new HashMap<Object, Object>();
            hashMapParameter.put("orderBy", "id");
            hashMapParameter.put("myname", "%edw%");
            
            sqlSession = MyBatisSqlSessionFactory.getSqlSessionFactory().openSession(true);
            SelectMapper mapper = sqlSession.getMapper(SelectMapper.class);
            
            List<HashMap<Object, Object>> hashMapResults = mapper.select(hashMapParameter);
            
            for (HashMap<Object, Object> hashMapResult : hashMapResults) {
                logger.debug(hashMapResult);
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            logger.error(e, e);
        } finally {
            if (sqlSession != null) {
                sqlSession.close();
            }
        }
    }
}

[Book Review] Packt Publishing’s Ebook, Java Persistence with MyBatis 3

Among lots of java frameworks, MyBatis is a very popular especially because it is a database-centric-framework and it has a shallow and short learning curve, and today im trying to do a book review for it. The book that i want to review is Packt Publishing’s Java Persistence with MyBatis 3. You can see the ebook on this link, http://www.packtpub.com/java-persistence-with-mybatis-3/book.

This book’s author, K. Siva Prasad Reddy, really show the reasons of why MyBatis is very popular by providing with various code samples, from simple “down to earth” codes to a much more complicated codes, such as Spring Framework integration and Caching strategy.

These are the Table of Contents of the book,
Chapter 1: Getting started with MyBatis
Chapter 2: Bootstrapping
Chapter 3: SQL Mappers using XML
Chapter 4: SQL Mappers using Annotations
Chapter 5: Integration with Spring

So needless to say, this is the kind of ebook that i wish i had read since long time ago.

Today i will show a simple example on how to combine ehcache caching framework with MyBatis ORM. I use Maven as my build tool, and Netbeans as my IDE.

Okay, here is my pom.xml,

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

            <version>1.7.5</version>
        </dependency>     
    </dependencies>
</project>

And i create a simple mysql table,

CREATE TABLE `testing` (
  `Id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(30) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `address` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  PRIMARY KEY (`Id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `ix` (`name`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=11 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

and a simple bean and xml representation from my table,

package com.edw.mybatisehcache.bean;

import java.io.Serializable;

public class Testing implements Serializable  {

    private Integer id;
    private String name;
    private String address;

    // setter and getter

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "testing{" + "id=" + id + ", name=" + name + ", address=" + address + '}';
    }            
}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE mapper PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Mapper 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-mapper.dtd" >
<mapper namespace="com.edw.mybatisehcache.mapper.TestingMapper" >
  
     <cache type="org.mybatis.caches.ehcache.EhcacheCache"/>
    
    <resultMap id="Testings" type="com.edw.mybatisehcache.bean.Testing" >
        <id column="id" property="id" jdbcType="BIGINT" />
        <result column="name" property="name" jdbcType="VARCHAR" />
        <result column="address" property="address" jdbcType="VARCHAR" />
    </resultMap>  

    <select id="select" resultMap="Testings">
        select 
        *
        from testing    
    </select>   
</mapper>

An xml configuration to load my database connection,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE configuration
PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Config 3.0//EN"
"http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-config.dtd">
<configuration>
    <environments default="development">
       <environment id="development">
            <transactionManager type="JDBC"/>
            <dataSource type="UNPOOLED">
                <property name="driver" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
                <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost/test"/>
                <property name="username" value="root"/>
                <property name="password" value=""/>
            </dataSource>
        </environment>          
    </environments>
     <mappers>        		
        <mapper resource="com/edw/mybatisehcache/xml/TestingMapper.xml" />  
    </mappers>              		
</configuration>

A java code to load my xml configuration,

package com.edw.mybatisehcache.config;

import java.io.Reader;
import org.apache.ibatis.io.Resources;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSessionFactory;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSessionFactoryBuilder;

public class MyBatisSqlSessionFactory {

    private static final SqlSessionFactory FACTORY;

    static {
        try {
            Reader reader = Resources.getResourceAsReader("com/edw/mybatisehcache/xml/Configuration.xml");
            FACTORY = new SqlSessionFactoryBuilder().build(reader);
        } catch (Exception e){
            throw new RuntimeException("Fatal Error.  Cause: " + e, e);
        }
    }

    public static SqlSessionFactory getSqlSessionFactory() {
        return FACTORY;
    }
}

A java interface to do handle queries,

package com.edw.mybatisehcache.mapper;

import com.edw.mybatisehcache.bean.Testing;
import java.util.List;

public interface TestingMapper {
    public List<Testing> select();    
}

And this is my ehcache.xml configuration,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--
    caching configuration
-->
<ehcache>
    
    <diskStore path="F:\\cache" />
    
    <defaultCache eternal="true" maxElementsInMemory="1000"
                   overflowToDisk="true" diskPersistent="true" timeToIdleSeconds="0"
                   timeToLiveSeconds="0" memoryStoreEvictionPolicy="LRU" statistics="true" />
</ehcache>

This is my main java class, as you can see i try to do a repeated simple select queries,

package com.edw.mybatisehcache.main;

import com.edw.mybatisehcache.bean.Testing;
import com.edw.mybatisehcache.config.MyBatisSqlSessionFactory;
import com.edw.mybatisehcache.mapper.TestingMapper;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSession;
import org.apache.ibatis.session.SqlSessionFactory;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class Main {

    private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Main.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            SqlSessionFactory sqlSessionFactory = MyBatisSqlSessionFactory.getSqlSessionFactory();
            SqlSession sqlSession = sqlSessionFactory.openSession();
            TestingMapper testingMapper = sqlSession.getMapper(TestingMapper.class);

            List<Testing> testings = testingMapper.select();
            for (Testing testing : testings) {
                logger.debug(testing);
            }
            sqlSession.close();

            try {
                Thread.sleep(3000);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                logger.error(e, e);
            }
        }
    }
}

This is what is written on my netbeans’ console,

2013-07-25 15:30:10,648 [Segment] DEBUG net.sf.ehcache.store.disk.Segment:779 - fault removed 0 from heap

2013-07-25 15:30:13,722 [Main] DEBUG com.edw.mybatisehcache.main.Main:24 - testing{id=4, name=tebek, address=Karawaci}

Here is my Netbeans project structure

Have fun (K)
